Nu Holdings stock rises after UBS upgrade as Brazil rate cut lifts Nubank outlook
Nu Holdings shares climbed 1.3% to $14.15 after UBS upgraded the stock to Buy, citing strong profit growth and improved loan performance. The move followed Brazil’s first interest rate cut in over a year, lowering the Selic rate to 14.75%. Nu reported Q4 net profit of $894.8 million, up 50% year-over-year, but shares remain down 15% in 2026. The company is preparing for a U.S. market entry.
